2250 TK returning player

[Pherax]

So I played TK as my very first army and became frustrated and have since moved on too try other armies, I finally landed on Dark Elves who I love, but I still had my TK lyring around, so I decided since I have more experience playing I would dust of the old skellies and give em a try again this is what I came up with, comments much appreciated

The Tomb Prince will go with the tomb guard, well thats my attempt, I know most dont like the Casket but I have the model and would like too use it so thats mostly why, thanks for reading

The Casket is Awesome Not sure where you got the idea that most people don't like it but nvm! lol.

Generally looks good. Ill start with your Special choices though. If you want Ushabti, take 4, as 3 fall apart too fast and 5 become too unwieldy to handle. Now the problem. Having Ush + TG is VERY expensive points wise. Personally id always recommend the Ush over the TG, as the Ush actually have some killing power. Tomb Guard are expensive combat res, but too weak to kill (KB isnt actually that good imo)

So, its up to you for special choices, ill wait for you to reply before blabbing on anymore there.

Generally, drop the Prince's Armour for the Collar of Shapesh, and if you're not having him in a Chariot, drop the Music and Standard from the unit of 3 Chariots.

Also, save points by dropping the GA from the HLP, if he's being shot at, he's as good as dead anyway. The Cloak should be all the protection you need.

hmm idk i guess ive just seen alot of "i never take the casket ect" posts on other sites, and ill have too check if i have another ushabti somewhere lol, as for the TG I took this list mainly because its the models I have, ill take your advice though and see what I can come up with but thanks for the advice , well Ive taken the advice how does this look

Ok cool. Well, as you have the models, best bet (i think) would be to use the TG as skellies lol.

Id recommend using skellies with Bows, 2 units of 20 - 25 with Music, and maybe a Standard. Prince joins one, making his magic usable early on.

In your 4th Special slot, get a second Scorp! or maybe 3-5 Carrion. Drop the Tomb Swarms from 3 to 2.

You have 6 dispel dce and the Casket, which i think is plenty magic defence. Maybe keep 1 scroll, and shift the Hjar to the Casket Priest. This gives you the option to mount the thirs Priest, and give him the SoRavening?

Well Looking at your advice I came up with this, how does this look, once again thanks
